1. Cloaked in gold, Hillary takes the stage!

[Autumn]

4. As long as she ain't wearing a crown we are all good.

[Elmer S. E. Dump]

2. Damn, Hillary is already ahead 3 points in the wardrobe department!

[pangaia]

8. Going where I do not like to go, and also being as Bernie guy,

that is a god awful color yellow.

I just turned the TV off. I can't look at it..

I also just finished watching The Seven Samurai for about the 20th time.. Maybe that has something to do with it.

[senz]

10. How sweet! I hope others felt the same.

[pangaia]

11. I hope you caught my edit..

[senz]

19. Great, GREAT film.

For another discussion.

[TexasBushwhacker]

20. It's not the best color

But it's better than that burlap suit she wore.

[pangaia]

24. NO NO NO. I prefer the burlap suit.

I don't sneeze or go blind.

[senz]

3. Bernie's talking issues, of course. Because he cares.

[senz]

5. Bernie: "We." Hillary: "I".

True to form. But she's borrowing heavily from Bernie's issues.

[winter is coming]

53. I'm going to laugh my ass off if she suddenly switches to "we". n/t

[Ed Suspicious]

6. Hillary: "I'm Bernie +!"

[pangaia]

16. Right !!!

I caught that before I turned it off..


WE WE WE WE as in ME AND the Socialist, because,. I AM A SOCIALIST TOO.

[angstlessk]

7. Bernie was specific...Hill was vague

[elehhhhna]

9. I want to smirk while I break the barrier,

For myself of course

And what the fuck is she wearing? A gilded pod?

[pangaia]

17. Goldenrod dust

I'm about to sneeze.

[senz]

12. I hope Bernie knows the moderator is insinuating socialism.

[senz]

13. Bernie should not let Hill answer for him.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

14. Mrs. Nasty

[senz]

15. She's got loud supporters in the audience.

[senz]

18. Now she's pitting Bernie against Obama & assuming O's mantle.

[Snotcicles]

21. Are they going to allow her hog all the time again? nt

[elehhhhna]

23. Evidently

[senz]

22. "Vet" is the Hillary word of the week. As in, Bernie needs to be vetted.

[senz]

25. Stay calm, Bernie.

We all know what she is.

[senz]

26. Look at her espression as she watches him.

Smug and superior.

[Mufaddal]

27. Gee, I wonder if Hill took money for health industry speeches too?

Oh, wait...

[Ed Suspicious]

28. Have you ever seen her act so calm and measured?

[senz]

29. She has spent her entire adult life empowering women? Really??

When?

[jalan48]

30. When did Hillary go Trekkie?

[Ed Suspicious]

31. There seems to be an audience made of majority of Hillary fans. This is weird in a state

that goes about 50% for both candidates.

[senz]

32. So glad he's addressing the race issue vis a vis crminal justice.

This is good stuff. I'm loving him right now.

[senz]

33. She tried to pit Bernie against Ted Kennedy.

[NRaleighLiberal]

34. This is the first debate I am watching so far. This is not a unique comment -

but when I compare our two candidates of intellect, substance, dedication and class to the clown car posse on the other side, it is just stunning.

It is good to see a bit of fire between these two - there needs to be. But it is nuanced difference, for the most part.

Of course we here are going to lean one way or another and for many good reasons.

But we must have a Democrat in the White House as an outcome of the next election. It is horrifying to think of any of the other side getting in.

[Ed Suspicious]

35. Means testing. That's her answer to Social Security.

[Autumn]

37. What was that? I missed a bit of it

Did she say that?

[Ed Suspicious]

39. More or less. She wants to focus on helping the poorest seniors. She wants to do everything Bernie

wants to do and more and then the difference between them, she said, was that she would help the seniors who most need the help. I heard it as means testing.

[Autumn]

40. Yeah that sounds like means testing to me too.

Not a good thing.

[senz]

36. She's dodging the Q about her two 10 million dollar donors.

Woo hoo!

[senz]

38. Ohhh, wrong, Hillary! Bernie did NOT even mention Obama.

And she accuses him of criticizing Obama's campaign financing.

[Ed Suspicious]

41. The analysts describe Bernie as unspecific and aggressive. Fix is in. I'm not buying it.

Oh yeah . . . Talking points and stump speech. Didn't answer the question was another charge.

[NRaleighLiberal]

42. yes - I am watching on PBS - the three analysts are seeing something opposite of

what I am seeing.

[mak3cats]

43. My sentiment from the first minute...

...but I wasn't sure if I was being paranoid or not. And she is being allowed the last word on pretty much every question too, it seems. I don't know if I can watch until the end.

[ReallyIAmAnOptimist]

45. Exactly. 3-Hbots?

Notice how they all said Bernie was sticking to his talking points?
I guess they were sticking to THEIR talking points...

Poor job PBS.

[Ed Suspicious]

47. They all looked uncomfortable doing it. Each one stumbled on their words. I think they aren't used

to playing by the MSM rules.

[senz]

44. Yes, judgment matters at least as much as experience.

He was ready with a comeback to her attack (and bragging).

Oh here she is taking credit for bin Laden again...

[Ed Suspicious]

46. The K-man leading on China. Leading our factories to fire all their workers and ship production to

that authoritarian nation.

[senz]

48. She's doing it again! Pitting Bernie against Obama!

Nasty politics. Nasty, nasty, nasty. Dirty. I hope this comes back to haunt her BIG TIME.

[Ed Suspicious]

49. Single issue candidate? Fuck you, Madame Secretary.

[senz]

50. I switched to PBS from CNN and it's true. Hillbots calling Bernie nonspecific and aggressive.

They said it over again, like a spin.

I used to support PBS.

[Ed Suspicious]

52. It was quite the well orchestrated chorus tonight. Wasn't it?

[senz]

51. MSNBC has at least one good commentator.
